  11. Types of Budgets 2. Local • Generated Internally • Specific Services to Institutional Entities • Supported by User Charges • E.g. lab fees cover lab costs, not for non-lab related items • Could be purchased outside, but can provided more effectively internally • E.g. mailing services, duplicating services, motor pools, and central stores

  12. Types of Budgets 2. Auxiliary Enterprises • Fees related, maybe not equal to, Cost • Distinguishing Characteristics: • Non-Academic • Expected to be self-supporting • Services focused on individuals & community, not depts of institution • Can get Student Fees or other support • Cannot get Appropriated $ for Operating Costs • Can charge appropriated depts for services • E.g. Intercollegiate Athletics, Student Health, Housing, Morrison Center, Select-A-Seat, etc

  13. Types of Budgets 3. Grants • Funds received for a specific purpose from a specific entity • Considered Short Term • Can span multiple years • Strictly controlled…“strings attached” • “Soft” Funding • University reimbursed for Overhead expenses • Pre-Award: Office of Research Administration • Post-Award: Sponsored Projects Accounting
